Keane
If you go down to the woods today...
Battle's finest Keane have announced a summer tour of outdoor gigs, including a near-home date at Bedgebury Pinetum.
The trio's forest tour takes them to Bedgebury on June 11. Tickets, priced £32, go on sale this Friday at 9am.
The gigs follow the release of Keane's new EP The Night Train on May 8. In a departure for the band, the eight-song EP includes collaborations with Somali/Canadian rapper K'Naan and Japanese MC Tigarah, as well as a rare lead vocal from the band's songwriter Tim Rice-Oxley.
A deluxe edition of Keane's breakthrough debut Hopes And Fears is out now as a 37-track double CD, including many unreleased and rare tracks, including the band's self-released singles Call Me What You Like and Wolf At The Door.
